Description
For a reactive console mode (similar to R's shiny::reactiveConsole()), we implement it in a way similar to the asyncio interactive console, which lets you call async functions at the top level:
python3 -m asyncio
>>> await asyncio.sleep(3)
It's implemented with AsyncIOInteractiveConsole here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Lib/asyncio/__main__.py

Research direction
Start by reading Python's Lib/asyncio/main.py and its AsyncIOInteractiveConsole implementation, then inspect the py-shiny repository for the console entry point. Clarify how reactiveConsole behavior should map onto Shiny for Python and what tests or examples would demonstrate completion.
